"It's got a little black nose," she said.

Yeah, and a whole lot more...

Aack!!

I think I got off easy.

Did you see the photo? Pretty nasty.

Remember, No good deed goes unpunished.

Anytime you let Fluffy out to play and wander the streets, she can bring home all kinds of nasty bacteria like this. Keep your cats safely indoors or supervise them out in your yards, people.

That's the confusing thing about my cat incident. The cats haven't been outside (except in a carrier going to the vet) in NINE YEARS! Where the heck did they get the fleas?

Hah… The caption under the picture says “Rinworm”.

Even after my objections, my DW and DD1/2 brought home a stray kitten about a month ago (I really have control in my house, this makes 2 cats). They promised it would be gone well before Christmas, but the tree is up and the cat is still here.

No ringworm or fleas as the cats do not want to go outside due to the cold/snow, we will see what happens in the spring.

Maybe your cat is seeing someone else.

They catch mice that get in the house? Fleas generally like mammals. Other than that, they don't care.

Or you could have carried them into the house.
